  I also tend to agree with Eno.. 
We currently dont have classes that are not "public" and or  have
attributes that are "msinternal".
I will apply the patch (excluding  the DataTableTypeConverter) till we
reach a decision on these attributes.

Hope this is fine with you..

Uma

The DataTableTypeConverter looks not publicly exposed, isn't it?

(Assuming my guess above is correct) am wondering why we should
copy "MS internal" attributes. There are many MS internal classes we
don't have. If the "fixed" corcompare tools require "internally
applied" attributes, then it looks wrong IMHO.

Well, its slipping to off-topic from System.Data. I leave the
solution to Uma. I don't think this patch breaks anything.
